Chest lateral decubitus is a chest examination to determine the persence of pleural fluid in thorax. In this study, we prepare recumbent holding position time standard of chest lateral decubitus. The records of 15 patients with chest lateral decubitus between May and Jun. Recumbent holding time is 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 210, 240 seconds. The result is fluid level change between 0.88mm to 9.63. Fluid heigh change between 9.9 percent to 42.5 percent. We can confirm fluid level change with chest decubitus image. The proper time for fluid level change is 180 seconds.

This study was to improve to utilization of non dosimetry measurements for X-ray radiography. Experiments was passed off varying the X-ray tube voltage and the thickness of the aluminum filter by actual dose. Calculated results was set to the first beam quality factors, calculated first correction coefficient by the Microsoft Excel program was set as the second beam quality factors. To make the non dosimetry measurements simply, the Excel program apply to the new beam quality factors, the error was compared to the previous studies, and the results verify the calculated value of smaller errors.

In this study, to find out the effect of psychological anxiety of the patients during MRI examination on the claustrophobia and vital signs, As for a study tool, to measure Anxiety Sensitivity Index(ASI), Kamsung Evaluation Index of Life Environmental Noise(KEI), Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders(DSM-IV) was used, and for vital signs, blood pressure and pulse rate were measured pre and post MRI examination. In conclusion, it was indicated that though the effect of the general characteristics, psychological anxiety, on noise sensitivity and claustrophobia was small, the psychological anxiety of the patients during MRI examination affected claustrophobia and vital signs.

In this study, We designed and implemented a assistant device for the standing X-ray views which is the one of the clinical X-ray imaging position. To evaluate the usability of the proposed assistant device, We choose 11 clinical patient postures that are used frequently and applied the postures to 5 volunteers. 11 images was taken from a volunteer for the patient postures. And we conducted a survey on safety and clinical usefulness, the 5 volunteers responded to the safety and 5 experts responded to the clinical usefulness. The survey results show that the volunteers feel more safe and the obtained images are very clear and clinically useful. The result for the image quality is 4.69 of 5(best) and safety is 2.84 of 3(best). It will be very profitable to both patients and hospitals by using the proposed assistant device.

Through the inspector's real name to improve the quality of inspection is to show the design Radiological examination pursuant to the Ordinance of the Ministry of Health and Welfare for patient safety in the Image. However, the use of existing and in EMR, equipment within the handwriting input, the individual initial use has a problem. In this study, increasing the stability of the patient and the precise inspection, In order to increase the efficiency and convenience than the real-name system for quality control inspectors of medical equipment, Using the EMR and PACS developed and applied to evaluate the usefulness of automatic enrollment. Enter your information in the EMR, which was developed markers that inspectors use to compare the before and after images PACS satisfaction. Convenience than using traditional, consistency, the entry of the missing were higher as a statistically significant difference. A test strip automatic enrollment programs are developed in this study. You can increase the stability of the patient by checking the image to show the real tester, we expect the quality of care would be improved.

To investigate acute drug intoxication trends in the elderly visited Emergency Medical Centers, Data was collected from the records of poisoning patients visited Five different Hospitals from January 1. 2007 to December 31. 2007. The analysis was conducted by using 135 cases of 624 cases. When considering only the elderly and making comparisons between the urban areas and the rural areas the following data was produced. In regard to patients with acute drug intoxication, the main substance of choice was pesticides. Cases of acute drug intoxication are definitely higher for those categorized as the rural elderly (75.0%) when compared with those categorized as the urban elderly (44.1%). The male to female ratio, those living together as a family, past suicide attempts, mental state and sobriety condition when they came, monthly distribution etc. between the two groups did not demonstrate a difference between them. In regard to reasons given for acute drug intoxication, suicide was the highest at 60.7% of the cases. When comparing accidental reasons for poisoning, the urban elderly, at 34.2% of their cases, were higher than in the rural elderly, at 23.7%. After first aid was administered, the admission rate was higher for the rural elderly (47.4%) than for the urban elderly (33.9%). This shows that the rural elderly have a more severe acute drug intoxication poisoning problem than the urban elderly do.

여드름은 면포, 구진, 낭종, 결절, 색소 침착 등 다양한 피부병변으로 나타나는 모낭피지선의 만성 염증질 환으로 사춘기부터 성인기까지 발생 연령대가 다양해지고 있다. 한편, 약물 부작용으로 여드름이 발생하기도 하 는데, 표피성장인자(epidermal grouwth factor, EGF) 수용체 억제제 항암제를 사용할 경우 75 ∼ 100%에서 여드름양 모낭염이 발생된다고 보고되고 있다. 여드름의 치료로 항생제, 레티노이드 경구 복용 및 외용 약제 도 포 등 다양한 방법이 이용되고 있다. 그러나 최근 들어 레티노이드 기형 유발 가능성 및 Propionibacterium acne의 항생제 내성률 증가는 기존 치료의 한계로 여겨진다. 따라서 본 연구는 최근 여드름양 발진에 효과가 있다고 알려진 EGF를 함유한 외용제가 여드름 치료에 미치는 효과와 안정성을 평가하였다. 한국 성인 10 ∼ 29세 23명을 대상으로 EGF 함유 제품(트러블컨트롤 EGF)과 3종 제품(트러블컨트롤 클래리파잉 클렌징폼, 트 러블컨트롤 올-클리어 필링토너, 레드롤 카밍 모이스처)을 하루 두 번 사용하도록 하였다. 사용 후 영상 피지량, 경표피수분손실량, 피부 홍조 측정, 전문가 육안 평가, 사용 후 만족도 설문조사를 평가하였다. 최종 측정 시, 피부 피지량, 경피수분손실량, 피부 홍조가 통계학적으로 감소하였으며, 전문가 육안 평가에서 여드름 병변(면 포, 구진)도 통계학적으로 감소하였다. 연구동안 심각한 부작용은 관찰되지 않았다. 표피성장인자 함유 외용제는 경도의 여드름에 안전하면서도 효과적으로 사용할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

CT 조영검사 예약환자의 원활한 검사 진행과 조영검사로 인한 부작용을 줄일 수 있는 전처치 프로세스 시스템을 개발 및 적용하여 CT 조영검사 예약환자의 검사 만족도를 높이고자 하였다. 2014년 1월부터 201 4년 2월까지 CT 조영검사를 예약하여 추적검사를 시행했던 2,846명의 환자들 중 예약시간에 검사를 시행 하지 못하고 지연된 214명의 환자들을 대상으로 지연사유를 분석한 후 전처치 프로세스 시스템을 구상 및 개발하여 2015년 1월부터 2015년 2월까지 전처치 프로세스 시스템을 이용하여 전처치가 필요한 644명을 대상으로 SMS 전송 시행율, SMS 전송내역, 예약시간 준수율, 예약시간 지연 사유, 예약 시간보다 지연된 시간 등을 분석하였다. 2014년 1~2월 외래 CT 조영검사 예약환자는 2,846명이었고, 그 중 예약시간에 검사 를 시행하지 못한 환자는 214건으로, 약 7.52%의 비중을 차지하고 있었다. 예약시간보다 지연된 세부적인 사례는 creatinine 미확인이 98건(46%), creatinine 1.3 이상이 40건(19%), 과거조영제부작용이 34건(16%), 금 식 등 전처치 미흡이 25건(11%), 메트포민제제 당뇨약 복용이 4건(2%), 기타 이유가 13건(6%)으로 나타났 으며, 평균 지연시간은 creatinine 미확인이 120분, creatinine 1.3이상이 30분, 과거조영제부작용이 40분, 금식 등 전처치 미흡이 120분, 메트포민제제 당뇨약 복용이 30분, 기타 사유가 60분으로 나타났다. 2015년 1월~2 월 전처치 프로세스 시스템을 적용하여 전처치가 필요한 대상자 644명중 SMS 전송시행율은 515건(80%)으 로 나타났으며, SMS 전송내역을 분석한 결과 당일 검사가 283건(44%), 진료과 방문이 185건(29%), 전처치 불필요가 47건(7%), 외래과에서 전처치 프로세스 시스템 미확인으로 SMS 전송이 안 된 건수가 129(20%)건 으로 나타났다. CT 조영검사 예약시간 준수율은 전체 644건 중 560건(87%)이 예약시간 안에 검사를 시행 하였으며, 예약시간보다 지연된 세부적인 사례는 creatinine 미확인이 23건(28%), creatinine 1.3이상이 11건(1 3%), 과거조영제부작용이 7건(8%), 금식 등 전처치 미흡이 30건(36%), 메트포민제제 당뇨약 복용이 6건( 7%), 기타 이유가 7건(8%) 이었다. 예약시간보다 평균 지연된 시간은 creatinine 미확인이 90분, creatinine 1. 3이상이 20분, 과거조영제부작용이 30분, 금식 등 전처치 미흡이 120분, 메트포민제제 당뇨약 복용이 30분, 기타 사유가 60분으로 나타났다. 조영제 부작용의 효율적인 관리적 측면과 CT 조영검사 예약시간에 검사가 원활하게 진행될 수 있도록 전처치 프로세스 시스템을 적용해본 결과 적용 전에 비해 전처치 준비 시간이 줄어들고 CT실, 진료실, 채 혈실, 주사처치실 등의 방문횟수 및 동선이 줄어들어 CT실을 찾는 고객들의 검사만족도와 의료서비스 향 상에 기여가 될 것으로 사료된다.
